I'm honored to receive a 100% on Defenders of Wildlife’s 2025 Conservation Report Card. Protecting wildlife, conserving public lands, & defending the Endangered Species Act shouldn’t be partisan — it’s about preserving America’s natural heritage for the next generation. defenders.org/sites/defaul...

For America to be strong, the middle class needs to be strong. So why are Republicans and Trump slashing health care funding and pushing up prices on everything from gas to groceries – all while directing trillions of dollars in tax breaks to the wealthiest Americans?
Nazeer fought alongside our soldiers and came to the US with the promise we'd protect him, only to be detained by ICE and dead 24 hours later. There needs to be an independent investigation into his arrest and his death and accountability for any mistreatment.
Last night, an Air Force KC-135 crashed in western Iraq. Annie and I are keeping the families of the six airmen who were killed in our prayers. We are grateful for their service and sacrifice amid this ongoing war.
My heart goes out to Temple Israel in Michigan. I’m relieved the congregants and staff and all the kids at the daycare center are safe and unharmed. It’s tragic how many houses of worship have security guards today and that incidents like this show they’re needed.
There’s bipartisan support in the Senate for regulating AI to ensure the country as a whole benefits and Americans are protected against its largest risks. I believe we can get this done. I’m ready to work with anyone to make it happen.
The NO FAKES Act would protect all Americans from spreading unauthorized deepfake content using your voice and likeness. And we need to do way more to protect our kids and our privacy from threats posed by artificial intelligence.
I already have a couple of bipartisan bills I’m working on. The Protect Elections from Deceptive AI Act would prohibit deceptive AI-generated content about federal candidates like what we’re seeing in Hungary.
Congress needs to get serious about passing smart, strategic rules about AI before it’s too late.
We’re once again seeing AI-generated content spreading misinformation about elections, this time in Hungary. It’s increasingly clear that AI-generated misinformation is influencing elections here in America and around the world and needs to be reined in. www.reuters.com/world/hungar...
2/ Congress needs to get serious about passing smart, strategic rules about AI before it’s too late. I already have a couple of bipartisan bills I’m working on that we could move quickly.
Last year, Trump and Republicans made huge cuts to health care in the Big Beautiful Bill and gave 25 billion of those dollars to the Pentagon. Now, they’re about to come to Congress to ask for more money for Trump’s war of choice with Iran. What did they do with last year’s money?
American service members are dead. Gas prices are rising. Markets are rattled.
Yet the Trump administration still can’t answer basic questions about their war of choice in Iran.
The American people deserve the truth.
I'm horrified by new evidence that a deadly strike on an Iranian school last weekend may have been a tragic accident by US forces. My colleagues and I have called on the Pentagon to complete its investigation and hold those responsible to account. We cannot hide from the truth.
In my new op-ed in MS NOW, I call for Secretary Rubio and Secretary Hegseth to come before Congress to give the American people the answers they deserve. www.ms.now/opinion/iran...
President Trump didn’t make the case to the American people or Congress before launching a war with Iran. Now we’re more than a week in with no clear strategy or end goal.
More than 225,000 Delawareans rely on Social Security. They earned those checks with a lifetime of work, and that's why I'll keep standing up for them and stopping efforts to cut Social Security.
Reports that the administration is considering sending special forces to seize heavily fortified nuclear sites in Iran are dangerous and alarming. No boots on the ground in Iran.
An entire Treasury Department, an entire Council of Economic Advisers, and apparently not a single one of them has taken a basic economics class. www.cnn.com/2026/03/09/p...
While Americans are increasingly dipping into their retirements to make ends meet, Trump raises costs and starts new wars overseas. He claims we're in a "Golden Age," but the only thing golden is the paint he's using on the White House.
